INDIA 4775, 1403-1414, AIR Imphal Oct 1 Male announcer in Hindi with news
items, and mentioning Mumbai many times and other Indian cities. Different
male reporter with sports news, including English words 'tournament',
'tie-breaker' and 'competition'. AIR network ID by woman at 1415, and music
interlude. Very good signal at local sunrise. (Atkins-WA)

INDIA 4820, 1414-1420, AIR Kolkata Oct 1 Tentative. Fair signal of man in
sub-continental language and Indian flute & tabla music. Strong co-channel
interference from Xizang PBS, China which dominated the frequency.

INDIA 4880, 1420-1426, AIR Lucknow Oct 1 Probable. Somewhat noisy signal of
Hindi film music. Female announcer in presumed Hindi 1425, and back to music
with tabla and vocals. Fair level. Another skewed-path propagational
morning, as all Indian signals were best on the West Beverage antenna. Over
the last two years, India stations seem to favor this antenna roughly 20% of
the time. (Atkins-WA)

INDIA 4910, 1431-1433, AIR Jaipur Oct 1 Tentative. Weak, noisy signal of
Hindi film music and female announcer in possible Hindi language.

MALAYSIA 4895, 1427-1431, RTM-Kuching, Sarawak Oct 1 Huge S9+20db signal
with male announcer in Iban chatting with phone callers. Sentimental,
romantic song by Malaysia's answer to Dean Martin at 1428 in
Bahasa-Malaysian or Iban; more announcer and caller banter 1430. (Atkins-WA)

PAPUA NEW GUINEA 4960, 1439-1530, Catholic Radio Network, Vanimo Oct 1
Strong signal 1/2 hour past local sunrise, with usual contemporary Christian
music. Noted continuous religious music to 1530 after reviewing recording;
no announcements, IDs, or typical R. Vatican IS at top of hour, so presumed.
CRN was still in with poor audio at 1530, 1-1/2 hours past sunrise. Best on
West Beverage. (Atkins-WA)
